From the Abstract: “A biological monitoring scheme for the Ekofisk oilfield was initiated in 1973, based on intensive quatitative sampling of the benthic macrofauna community close to the installations.” From Conclusions: “1) The techniques used have b
A biological survey was made following an uncontrolled gas flow at a gas well in the North Sea in May 1983. The survey indicates that no lethal and sublethal effects were detectable amongst the macrobenthic fauna living on the jacket of the platform.
From the Abstract: "Multivariate statistical analyses of data on environmental variables and benthic fauna from 14 oil and gas fields obtained from 24 surveys collected between 1985 and 1993 are presented.
This investigation examines species diversity, faunal similarities, and biomass relations of benthic communities of the shallow, Louisiana continental shelf. A wedge exchange of species between the shelf and Timbalier Bay was developed.

The assemblage of macrobenthic and meiobenthic invertebrates were investigated along transects radiating out from two oil platforms off the Texas coast.

From Conclusions: “This paper has considered the immediate and longer-term effects that can be measured around single well sites, at platforms during development drilling, and in the phase after drilling has ceased….The evidence discussed in this paper
